The Future of the Navy: SWORD as a Threat to Pirates and Government

As the world of ONE PIECE continues to evolve, the latest developments in the Elbaf arc have sparked intriguing discussions among fans. The connections drawn between this arc and the classic tale of “The Wizard of Oz” not only enhance the narrative but also invite speculation about the future of the series. In this article, we will delve into these parallels and explore their potential implications for the characters and storyline.

The Wizard of Oz

In “The Wizard of Oz,” Dorothy is transported to the magical land of Oz, where she meets three companions on her journey: the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, and the Cowardly Lion. Each character seeks something essential: the Scarecrow desires a brain, the Tin Man seeks a heart, and the Cowardly Lion wishes for courage. Together, they embark on a quest to reach the Emerald City.

Brain, Heart, and Courage

  • Dr. Vegapunk (Stella)corresponds to the Scarecrow, having had his brain separated.
  • Bartholomew Kuma, transformed into a Pacifista, represents the Tin Man, having lost his heart.
  • Usopp, who dreams of becoming a brave warrior, aligns with the Cowardly Lion, seeking courage.

As the story unfolds, it appears that these characters may find what they seek in Elbaf, paralleling the journey of Dorothy and her friends.

Over the Rainbow

The famous song “Over the Rainbow” from “The Wizard of Oz” resonates with the journey to Elbaf, where the Straw Hat crew crosses a rainbow to reach the island. This connection raises questions about the significance of direction and the potential for a deeper narrative involving Norse mythology and the themes of courage and heart.

The Emerald City

Could Elbaf itself be the Emerald City? The possibility of discovering the Emerald City within Elbaf suggests that the next adventure may lead to significant revelations, perhaps even relating to the ultimate treasure of Raftel.

Conclusion

The connections between “The Wizard of Oz” and the Elbaf arc in ONE PIECE open up exciting possibilities for character development and plot progression. As the story unfolds, fans are encouraged to keep an eye on these parallels and their implications for the future of the series.
